** Ironically, the song itself became so over-used that [[Hype Backlash|it got banned from several SF conventions]].
** There's a sequel in which Argo forgives them, and invites the Next Generation crew to visit. They wind up getting banned themselves, and this time Argo learns its lesson and makes the ban permanent.

* Implied in the Halloween party arc in [[FoxTrot]] when Paige [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|stands up to two party crashers]] who were prepared to kill Peter for not having beer at the party:
{{quote|'''Paige Fox:''' My friend over there is on the phone with the cops right now, so I suggest you and your party-crashing pals go back to wherever you came from.
'''Big Party Crasher:''' That might be tricky -- That place called the cops, too. }}

* Classic ''[[Traveller]]'' supplement ''The Traveller Adventure''. During the adventure "Pysadian Escapade" the PCs are railroaded into inadvertently breaking a Pysadian law and end up being banned from the planet.
* In the ''[[Planescape]]'' setting, gods (including godlike beings like demon lords) are not allowed in Sigil by order of the Lady of Pain. Seeing as she controls the portals, and thus decides who can use them, this rule solidly enforced.

Line 170 ⟶ 176:
* In ''[[Family Guy]]'', Peter alludes to being banned from Sea World for something when he prepares to explain to Chris what a whale's blowhole is for (or more specificially, what a whale's blowhole is ''not'' for), but [[Noodle Incident|we never hear it]] due to the scene shifting. The closest to an explanation given is from Seth MacFarland's in-character commentary for the episode, where he, in Peter's voice, claimed that he basically had sex with a whale's blowhole.
* In the 2019 ''[[The Addams Family (2019 film)|The Addams Family]]'' Fester recites a very [[Long List]] of nations he isn't allowed to visit, which includes all of Europe, all of Asia, and most coastal nations in Africa, but he adds he ''is'' still allowed in Antarctica.
* ''[[Rick and Morty]]''; Rick is not allowed at Carl's Jr for unspoken reasons, though given Rick's past it's easy to make educated guesses here.

* The Church of Scientology [https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2021/09/24/russia-bans-church-of-scientology-with-undesirable-tag-a75142 is not allowed to operate in Russia]; their government calls it a [[Scam Religion]].
* During the 94th [[Academy Award]]s, [[Will Smith]] slapped [[Chris Rock]] after the latter made a joke at the expense of Smith's wife [[Jada Pinkett Smith]] (Rock was unaware that Jada had alopecia, so it was partly his fault by his own admission). Not only did "The Slap" become a [[Fountain of Memes]] soon after it was broadcast, Will Smith was banned from attending the Oscars for a decade. Despite the altercation, Chris Rock declined to press charges against Smith even though it would technically count as assault under California law.
* Kazuhiko ‘Smokey’ Nagata of the Japanese car tuning shop [[Non -Indicative Name|Top Secret]] was invited by British automotive "lad mag" ''Max Power'' to bring his Nissan RB26-powered Toyota Supra to a car show in the UK. Seeking to leave a mark in the industry, Smokey performed an insane speed record stunt at an A1 highway, hitting a then-record breaking 197 miles per hour (317 kph). The local police were none too pleased about it, and Nagata was arrested for his antics (not helping matters was his lack of English skills). He was banned from entering the UK for a good decade soon after, but his stunt only served to made him a [[Refuge in Audacity|legend]] in the car tuning scene.
* Similar to the example with Russia above, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKCHu5d2J_A Norway no longer recognizes Jehova's Witness as a religion], meaning they no longer receive taxpayer funded subsidies and are not allowed to perform legal marriages.
